DIRECTIONS
 Cut Strait-Flex’s MEDIUM to desired length and trim ends at 45-degree angles. Fold MEDIUM
in half at center crease with print size facing each other. For inside corners, fold less than desired
angle with print side facing out.
 Apply all-purpose compound to corner. Press MEDIUM into the wet compound, adjust to create
a straight line, and wipe down with a taping knife. A second coat can be applied immediately. Let
dry completely over several hours or overnight.
 With a 6”or 8” taping knife, apply your final coat of compound feathering the compound
beyond previous coat. For inside corners, a very light coat of compound is all that’s needed. Let
dry completely over several hours or overnight.
 Sand lightly with 120 grit sandpaper. MEDIUM will not fuzz-up like paper or mesh tapes.
